SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

The present invention has been accomplished under the circumstances in view. It is one object of the present invention to provide a mini USB connector with card plug-in function, which has light, thin, short and small characteristics for a wide range of applications.

To achieve this and other objects of the present invention, a mini USB connector with card plug-in function in accordance with the present invention comprises an electrical insulating terminal holder, a conducting terminal set, and an EMI shielding shell. The electrical insulating terminal holder comprises an accommodation chamber, and a first tongue member and a second tongue member bilaterally disposed in a parallel manner at a front side relative to the accommodation chamber. The conducting terminal set comprises multiple conducting terminals mounted in the accommodation chamber. Each conducting terminal has a contact portion located at one end thereof, and a bonding portion located at an opposite end thereof. The contact portions of one part of the conducting terminal set are disposed to suspend in the accommodation chamber and the contact portions of the other part of the conducting terminal set are positioned in the first tongue member and the second tongue member. The bonding portions of the conducting terminals are arranged in at least one row to suspend outside a rear side of the electrical insulating terminal holder for bonding to an external circuit board. The EMI shielding shell surrounds the electrical insulating terminal holder and the conducting terminals, defining therein a mating chamber that matches with the accommodation chamber, the first tongue member and the second tongue member to constitute first, second and third insertion spaces respectively for the insertion of different types of electronic cards or electrical connectors.

In one example of the present invention, the conducting terminals are numbered from 1^(st) through 16^(th).

When the user pushes the operating portion 422 of the sliding push bar 42 of the card ejector mechanism 4 toward the inner end of the recess 141, the actuation portion 421 will be moved toward the inner side of the receiving space 13 against the upright bearing portion 412 of the swinging push bar 41 to turn the swinging push bar 41 about the upright pivot pin 131 in the receiving space 13 and the accommodation chamber 10. When the user inserts a SIM (Subscriber Identity Module) card 5 (nano SIM card or Micro SIM card) into the accommodation chamber 10 of the electrical insulating terminal holder 1 to move the SIM card 5 into contact with the contact portions 211 of respective conducting terminals 21 in the electrical insulating terminal holder 1, a front corner edge of the inserted SIM card will be forced against the push portion 411 of the swinging push bar 41 to turn the swinging push bar 41 about the upright pivot pin 131 in the receiving space 13, causing the upright bearing portion 412 of the swinging push bar 41 to push the actuation portion 421 of the sliding push bar 42 along the longitudinal sliding groove 14 in direction toward the outside of the electrical insulating terminal holder 1 and the EMI shielding shell 3.

When going to reject the inserted SIM card 5 out of the electrical insulating terminal holder 1, press the protruded operating portion 422 of the sliding push bar 42 of the card ejector mechanism 4 in direction toward the inside of electrical insulating terminal holder 1 and the EMI shielding shell 3. At this time, the actuation portion 421 will be moved toward the inner side of the receiving space 13 against the upright bearing portion 412 of the swinging push bar 41 to turn the swinging push bar 41 about the upright pivot pin 131 in the receiving space 13, causing the push portion 411 of the swinging push bar 41 to push the SIM card 5 out of the accommodation chamber 10 of the electrical insulating terminal holder 1.

Further, the conducting terminals 21 of the conducting terminal set 2 are numbered from 1^(st) through 16^(th).

Subject to applications, the 10^(th) conducting terminal 2110 can be used as a subsidiary conducting terminal of the 9^(th) conducting terminal 2109, or a vacant terminal for Micro USB2.0 or USB OTG (On-The-Go) application. The contact portions 211 of the 12^(th) through 16^(th) conducting terminals 2112˜2116 fit the third insertion space 303 that is configured to match with a predetermined micro USB specifications (for example, Micro USB3.0). Thus, the first insertion space 301, the second insertion space 302 and the third insertion space 303 defined in the electrical insulating terminal holder 1 and the EMI shielding shell 3 can fit different types of electronic cards or electrical connectors for multiple applications. Thus, the mini USB connector of the invention has light, thin, short and small characteristics for a wide range of applications.

Further, after installation of the 1^(st) through 16^(th) conducting terminals 2101˜2116 in the accommodation chamber 10 in insulating terminal holder 1, the bonding portions 212 of the 1^(st) through 16^(th) conducting terminals 2101˜2116 are longitudinally extended out of the rear side of insulating terminal holder 1 for bonding to an external circuit board. Further, the bonding portions 212 of the 1^(st) through 16^(th) conducting terminals 2101˜2116 can be arranged in two rows for bonding to an external circuit board using the mounting method of DIP (dual in-line package). Alternatively, the bonding portions 212 of the 1^(st) through 16^(th) conducting terminals 2101˜2116 can be arranged in one row for bonding to an external circuit board using the mounting method of SMT (Surface-mount technology).

Further, the mounting legs 31 of the EMI shielding shell 3 can be configured in one of harpoon-shaped, frog-leg shaped, fish-eye shaped and seagull leg shaped configurations for bonding to an external circuit board using the mounting method of DIP (dual in-line package). Alternatively, the mounting legs 31 of the EMI shielding shell 3 can be extended in horizontal and configured for bonding to an external circuit board using the mounting method of SMT (Surface-mount technology).
